Use an Ellipsis to Indicate That There's a Further Step
If the user needs to perform an additional action, show an ellipsis.
An ellipsis can give the user more confidence that there's a further step to confirm an action.
Users may well have unconsciously learned what these dots mean in a User Interface (UI), but you should validate this understanding while testing your product.

Use of metaphors
Choose metaphors that will enable users to instantly grasp the finest details of the conceptual model
Bring metaphors “alive” by appealing to people's perceptions-sight, sound, touch, and proprioception/kinesthesia-as well as triggering their memories
Expand beyond the literal interpretation of real-world counterparts
If a metaphor is holding you back, abandon it

Show an Indicator if the User's Work is Unsaved
1. Show the user whether their work has been saved or not.
2. Consider whether autosaving a user's work is helpful or not for your product.
3. Show your users that you respect the time and effort they've put into using your product (see #43, Respect Users' Time and Effort in Your Forms)
